Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Saudi State FC - FA Cup 3rd Round – Saturday 6th January 2024 - KO 12:45

Hope Hume gets the reducer in early before Bruno. Set the tone. Into these sports washed filth.

 

Morning lads and lasses . I got to sleep fine but it was a tumultuous sleep !

it matters not now because today is the day.

Shower, Dog walk and then we will see what train we are getting to town. Breakfast at either the cooper or Port of call and then we’ll have our first livener .

come on you red and whites ! hawayhawayhaway

 

There's too many variables in this one. Depends how the referee is going to manage the game but I think there's a number of players on each side that are capable of getting themselves caught up in the moment.

It's a fine line because we need that aggression and fire today if we're going to get a result. That means Neil, Hume and O'Nien have to go right up to the edge of the line without going over it. If they can do that, we'll get under their skin and upset their rhythm... And that's where we'll have a chance.

We've a very young team and they might not be ready for this occasion and this standard. All I can ask is that they give us everything they've got and I'll be proud no matter the result.

 

11:45pm kick off for me then leave for the airport at 3am, i'm gonna be ****ed

 

Hahaha

@LyndenGooch
Good luck to everyone at @SunderlandAFC today! Ha’Way the Lads ❤️‍⬛

 

Give it your all.
Keep cool.
Don't roll over.

Realistically we should be nowhere near this lot but we have to be ready to take advantage if they have an off day, and they've had plenty recently.

 

New branding up in BCB.

 

Town is heaving !

 

i'm not expecting out today but if i see hume put one of his tackles in on gordon i'll be leaving that ground a happy man

 

This.

Perspective here is that Bruno or Botman or Claire Balding cost individually as much or more as our entire squad.

In fact, they have players who cost as much as KLD paid for the ****ing club.

For us to get anything from the game would be absurd and utterly shambolic for them…..

Ha’waaaaaaaay

 

Watching this one with my eldest son who's a Mag. (I know!)

Hope I come away with the bragging rights!

Ha'way the lads!

 

So you saying you have no son mate?

 

I must have been a poor father when I was younger because I have four sons, one is a Manchester United fan and the other three are Mags!! Where did I go wrong?

 

Well at least being Mackem genetics they will have the correct amount of fingers and toes. Small mercies.
